3. Try inserting the installation DVD or USB media if DISM can’t find the files online.
   In DISM.exe, type /Online, /Cleanup-Image, /RestoreHealth, /Source:C:RepairSourceWindows, and limit access to the file
4. Your DVD or USB flash drive should be replaced with the path “C:RepairSourceWindows”.
5. You shouldn’t have to wait longer than five minutes for the process to complete.

You can repeat the SFC scan if the problem persists after the DISM scan is completed or if it was not possible to run one earlier.

You can try running the computer in clean boot mode.
